Brad McQuaid literally borrowed money he thought he was going to get from the kickstarter to his lovely EQ revival that failed before it well, failed.

i'm one of the dorks who hit "remind me" because i hadn't made up my mind yet. in the last few hours of the kickstarter i decided that i would give them one last chance to make up for the sin of Guitar Hero Rocks the 80's.

Mighty No. 9?

NOT MEGAMAN

COMPLETELY NOT MEGAMAN YOU GUYS!

JUST A SIDE-SCROLLING VIDEO GAME WHERE YOU PLAY AS A ROBOT SHOOTING OTHER ROBOTS.

AND THEN WHEN YOU BEAT A ROBOT YOU CAN TAKE THEIR POWERS AND USE THEM AGAINST THE OTHER ROBOTS.

AND YOU CAN FIGHT THESE ROBOTS IN ANY ORDER.

AND WE'VE JUST BEEN SPIT-BALLING A NUMBER AROUND, BUT WE'RE THINKING PROBABLY LIKE EIGHT ROBOTS.

NOTHING TO DO WITH MEGAMAN, CAPCOM WON'T EVEN CARE, SO YOU TOTALLY SHOULDN'T EVEN BOTHER CALLING THEM ABOUT IT.

their efficency gets greatly impeded when they become dirty, which means you quickly lose a lot of potential energy output.

also itd be like trillions of dollars to replace everything with them and tie them into electrical grids

would that be enough to tank its potential use as an energy source? the mars rovers (the 2003 ones) have to deal with tons of dust on their panels too and they still managed to keep ticking for ages and ages

only by moving around, disrupting that dust. when the motors finally failed on one of them, it slowly died out because it couldn't clear it off

the mars rovers only had to worry about powering a rover designed to minimize energy usage and where it'd be pretty much ok if the device it was atached to couldn't function for months at a time.


replacing all the roads with solar panels would create a huge possible swing in electric generation, all the way from freshly cleaned at full sun to filthy at midnight, and compensatin for these load changes would be very hard - see also germany's current issue shandling their wildly variable massive install base of solar panels where a lot of the time they put out nothing and a lot of the time they put out bursts of power that have be paid to sent to other countries to sink into something.

depending on where you live it's not like road maintenance happens with any frequency anyway, except now there would be lightning coming out of the ground instead of potholes
